As for the question regarding multiple species,
look at the answer to David's post.

Regarding your question:
Its not actually a simulation, but a system that should be
used to position objects on a heightfield, in regard to
slope and intersections of objects. Building the system to
compete, with dying objects etc, would be very difficult
to implement I guess, and modifying the exisiting code is
no easy task (is already over 1000 lines of code pure
vegetation-macros, add some other, older macros of
name-generation, vector sorting etc...).

But I'll keep it in mind in case I change my mind...
